how much does a plate cost? and does that mean i would have to pay insurance on it?

i think in most if not all states to ride on public roads you must be insured

insurance on a 17 year old kid on a pocket bike is going to be crazy high

the main advantage of scooters is that you dont need a special motorcycle license, a normal license works. i think the limit is 100cc, may be 50cc

scooters can't be driven on highways only streets with speed limits under about 45mph i think

u.s. 41 has a speed limit of 50. and i think a scooter would be kind of slow tho.. are there any scooters that can get up in speed fast?

ya there are scooters that will go 80+mph, but you need a motorcycle license for them and they cost as much as a motorcycle anyway
